About Horse Rescue | Jackson Hole Horse Rescue

When horses are neglected, aging, or no longer wanted, finding a safe and responsible path forward can feel uncertain. Many people want to help but struggle to find an organization that offers consistent care and clear follow-through. Jackson Hole Horse Rescue was founded in 2011 to meet that need, creating a dependable place for horses requiring rehabilitation, placement, or lifelong sanctuary. With more than 300 horses rescued and 37 currently in care, the work is grounded in steady, long-term commitment rather than short-term solutions.

Jackson Hole Horse Rescue currently cares for its horses on three irrigated pastures in Jackson Hole. Our location since 2011 has been a 40-acre pasture located at a private ranch just west of the Jackson Hole, Wyoming airport. The owner of this ranch has graciously provided this pasture to the Horse Rescue in exchange for us taking his family and guests on Horse Rescue guided rides when they visit. This pasture adjoins Grand Teton National Park.

A second 40-acre pasture located at a private ranch in the National Elk Refuge has recently been obtained by the Horse Rescue through the generosity of its owner. In addition, pasture for our horses is now being provided by the Teton Science School on property south of Highway 22 in Jackson, Wyoming.

These two pasture additions have allowed the Horse Rescue to expand the number of horses we are able to care for. The Horse Rescue currently provides irrigated pasture and feed for 37 horses and continues to welcome more when conditions allow – always with the goal to provide a safe home and a lasting place the horses can call home.
